"There are now at least 173 underpasses and overpasses that are dedicated for #wildlife to get safely across roads.

"There’s three more that are under construction right now and there are 47 that have been committed to by various governments.

"So, we’re getting to this place where consideration of wildlife getting across roads is just a normal part of what we do. That’s super exciting."

Roads are not only for transportation, but also for conservation. A new book by Ben Goldfarb, Crossings, explores how road ecology can shape the future of our planet. He shows how we can design and build roads that minimize harm and maximize benefits for wildlife and humans. #roadecology #crossings #wildlife https://undark.org/2023/10/13/book-review-crossings/?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FArchetypes

I’m a wildlife biologist working at the intersection of applied conservation and environmental law. Currently focused on #RoadEcology and transportation effects on endangered #bats, #insects, and #turtles. Also dabble in #snake capture-mark-recapture and #CommunityScience.
